    Area of Science:

    • Transfusion Medicine
    • Hematology
    • Immunology

    Background:

    • Blood transfusions are vital but carry risks of serious adverse events.
    • Understanding transfusion reactions is critical for patient safety.
    • Several severe complications require detailed clinical and etiological review.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To comprehensively review current knowledge on severe blood transfusion complications.
    • To detail the pathogenesis, clinical picture, and therapy of these reactions.
    • To synthesize recent literature on transfusion-related adverse events.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of recent publications.
    • Detailed analysis of established and emerging transfusion reactions.
    • Synthesis of information on pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and treatment.
